Koza Han Entrance


The main entrance to the Koza Han (silk market)

The big entrance of kozahan,it was built in 1491 by sultan2. Beyazit.Before here they were selling cocoon..from these cocoons they were producing silk..this tradition came from the middle asia by the famous silk road.Inside it has like a hundred rooms where you can buy beautiful silk stuff.Of course now they are not selling cocoons anymore...when you go inside from that big door,you feel like you are not living in the year of 2008 ,back to the past...
